When Jason Kelce took the stage at Union Transfer last Friday for the taping of his new ESPN talk show, his first shout-out went to his wife, Kylie, seated in “Kylie’s Korner” in the balcony to his left.

Jason Kelce has reason to be a bit glum. His first episode of "They Call It Late Night With Jason Kelce" averaged a mere 290,000 viewers on ESPN, per Puck’s John Ourand. That's not good.

The ratings for the debut episode of the former Eagles center’s Friday night/Saturday morning talk show, “They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce,” were “not particularly good,” in the words of Puck sports business expert John Ourand.
